Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SEVENTY
RIO POV“Are you feeling better, Olga?” I sat her on a chair and placed the cup of tea she had been brewing in front of her. “Yes, thank you.” She murmured and took a sip from the cup. “What is happening?”“Are you certain that man is your grandson? You were pretty far from the window to have been able to have seen him clearly.”“My eye sight might be getting worse with age, but I know my boy, when I see him. What I don’t understand is why he tried to attack your brother?” Her face suddenly paled. “Are you bad people? Please don’t hurt me.”“No, Olga.” I appealed to her. “I promise that we are not going to harm you or your boy. We just wanted to talk to Pierre about a few things, that’s all.”“Just talk?” She asked.“Yes, just talk. In fact,” I squatted down in front of her. “Maybe you know something that could help us understand why your boy decided to run.”“I don’t think I do.”“Well, has Pierre been moving around with some shady characters?”“No, my boy is a good boy. He is alw
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY- NINE
RIO POV“You know that you almost made your poor wife piss her pants.” Dante said out of the blue, breaking the silence, I had been enjoying since we drove out of the estate. “Poor girl almost broke down crying.”If crying would knock some sense into her, then so be it.I have a potential sex-trafficker that may or may not be involved in my mother’s death to think about, instead of worrying about Mel.What was she worked up about? I wondered. It’s just a damn blood test.“Also, if you are not going to the office, why am I driving you?” Dante asked“Would you have willingly driven me to the company, for no reason?”“Maybe you are also worried about being out on your own? And who better than your big brother, to protect you?”I scoffed at the sheer absurdity of what he had said and he smirked. “Seriously, Dante. Fuck you.” I gave him the middle finger.“Yeah, yeah.” He said, still grinning.The marker on the GPS beeped, signaling a turn off the highway. Following it, Dante turned into
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY- EIGHT
MEL POVI stood, even after the doors slammed shut, frozen in Nonna’s arms. This is the first time I have actually felt scared of Rio. Like actual fear.“You know he didn’t mean to be harsh.” Nonna murmured softly. “He just wants to make sure that you are safe.”Safe? I wasn’t even sure if I was safe in this home anymore.“Mel.” Nonna nudged me. “You have to listen to him.”I turned to her, fury blazing in my eyes. “I can’t stay locked up here for good, Nonna.”“It’s not for good.” She said. “Mel, think of all the pressure you will be putting him under if he has to constantly worry about you. He loves you.”I felt exploding when she said that, because I was getting sick of this stupid lie. Rio doesn’t love me, he just wants a fuck buddy.“This sucks.” I grumbled and collapsed on the chair.“I know. But at least your color is back.” She tugged my cheeks. “You don’t look as pale as you did last night. You gave me a fright.”“I am sorry.” I murmured.“About what?” Nonna sat beside me. “
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY- SEVEN
MEL POVI don’t think I have slept so soundly before in my entire life.No nightmares. No headaches. Nothing at all.I could barely even remember what had happened yesterday. Well apart from the part where I found out my mother was abused in her loveless marriage and that I was the love child between her and a mafia lord.I couldn’t never forget that even if tried.“Halo.” Dante opens the room’s door and peeks his head in. “Decent enough in there?”“Hey, you have to knock first.” I yell at him. “I could have been naked in here.”“Rio would have liked that.” He enters and lies on the bed immediately. “I was sent to check if you were still sleeping as you were a no show for breakfast.”“I just woke up.”That is a lie, because I had woken up just in time for breakfast but eventually decided against it. I was not ready to stomach pitying remarks and looks from anyone at the moment.Maybe that’s why Nonna sent Dante, because his sarcasm was definitely more appreciated.“Are you feeling goo
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY- SIX
RIO POV“She is finally sleeping.” Nonna walks into the living room where the rest of the family had gathered looking distressed. “The poor girl is in so much pain. I had to give her some sleeping pills just to calm her down.”Mel had cried all the way back to the estate, that I had actually considered calling a doctor, but Nonna had offered to take care of her, while I reported the situation to my family.“Is she going to be alright?” Nick asks. “She did not look fine.”“She will be alright, my love.” Nonna pats his hair to comfort him. “She just has to come to terms with the new situation.”“Am I the only still confused here?” Dante suddenly blurts. “Because this all sounds like a badly written telenovela.”“Dante, this is not the time for jokes.” Nonna scolds him.“But I am not joking, Nonna.” He turns to me. “You are telling me, that Leo Draco showed up at your office with claims of your wife, possibly being the product of a love affair he had years ago, and simultaneously, your w
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY- FIVE
RIO POVI walk Signor Leo to the elevator. “Have a good day sir.” I say when the doors open.“Thank you.” He answers, but holds my hands before I can turn away. “I know it is hard to believe, but I am serious. If you can just let me talk to her, I am even willingly to take a DNA test to prove.”I am still having a hard time believing what he had told me earlier in the office so I just nod. “Don’t worry, Signor. I will reach out to you.”“Thank you.” He finally let’s go of my hands and walks into the elevator. I remain rooted to the ground even after the doors close.‘I believe your wife is my daughter.’Those were the words that Leo Draco had said that had left me dumbfounded. His reason for thinking so were equally absurd. A striking resemblance to his lost lover. “The man’s old age must be getting to him.” I conclude.But he seemed so certain.I glance to the clock on the hall way. Its 2pm. Almost closing hours, I still haven’t the chance to reach Mel. She should be home by now tho
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY-FOUR
MEL POV“So, my mother was cheating on her husband?”“I am not trying to justify her actions.” Sister Mary murmurs. “But she was young and naïve. First getting married for money and then falling for the first man who showed some kindness after years of abuse from her marriage. The world dealt her a hard blow.”“Still, she made her choice.” I recall Mrs. Park remarks. If this dumb Ava was my mother, then I am nothing like her. Not really.“Yes, she did.” Sister nods, solemnly. “Anyways after that day, she moved into one of the spare rooms in the church, waiting for the love of her life.”“He didn’t come back, did he? My real father?”“No. I had feared that was going to happen. That he had completely fooled her and taken advantage of her innocence. She would write letters to the address that he gave her but no response. Days turned into weeks turned into months but poor Ava still held faith that he will come for her. She held that faith even after she gave birth to you.” Sister Mary smi
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY- THREE
SISTER MARY POVFLASH BACK.“Oh, my dear Sister Mary.” Ava runs to me after the end of service and hugs me. “I have missed you so much.”“I have missed you, dear Ava.” I hug her tight. “It’s been so long. You just vanished. I thought I would never see this pretty smile again.”“I am so sorry, sister. I have been… living.” She laughs.“I can see that. You are have grown but you look so vibrant just like the old Ava I know. It seems being married suits you well. Are you alone?” I look around for the usual pair of watchful eyes, but there was none. “You didn’t come with your husband today?”“No. He is away on a business trip. That is the reason I was able to come here today.”“I heard he wants you to focus on being a good house wife.”“No, sister.” Ava pulls me into my office and locks the door. “He is evil and wicked. He beats me for no reason at all and locks me up in my room for days. I can’t stand it anymore. Look,” She lifts up her sleeves to show scars on her arms, and all over her
Hidden Obsessions CHAPTER SIXTY-TWO
MEL POV“What could they be talking about in there?” Angie murmurs, while putting her ear on the door’s peephole, so she could listen to the whispering happening outside the door.“Will you just relax?” I pull her away from the door. “At this rate, you will get us kicked out of here. You should be grateful that Sister Mary told us to wait for her in this office.”“It is called being polite. Nuns are trained to be that way.” She frowns. “But I don’t think Sister Martha attended those lessons. You see the way she just turned on us like we were evil spirit she was trying to cast away. She was all smiling faces and kisses and within a twinkle of the eye, she was so eager to make us leave.”“I noticed it too.” I nod. “And it was after she saw my name and Mrs. Park’s name on the computer.”“Exactly.” Angie yelps. “For a second, I thought she had seen the devil or something. I tell you, something fishy is going on in this place.”“Shh.” I reach over to cover her mouth. “I think they are comi
